Selenite
The selenite anion is a selenium oxoanion with the chemical formula SeO32−. A selenite (compound) is a compound that contains this ion. In slightly acid conditions, the hydrogenselenite ion, HSeO3−, is formed; in more acidic conditions selenous acid, H2SeO3, exists. Most selenite salts can be formed by heating the relevant metal oxide with selenium dioxide, e.g.:Na2O + SeO2 → Na2SeO3. Selenite is an inorganic form of selenium which may also be useful in cancer chemotherapy.(Wikipedia).
